  1. C in anatomy :/

    ajourneytonursing replied to taylorr13's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    To make up for that C you will need to get A's in physio and micro plus raise your overall GPA as high as you can. In addition you need to get a great TEAS score (or whatever entrance exam your...

  2. Hepatitis b titters?

    ajourneytonursing replied to Shkoukani.9's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hello! You have to double check with your particular school's requirements, but for mine, if your titers came back negative as long as you could prove you started your Hep B series by the time...

    Have you guys gotten a chance to join the FB group for our cohort?

    Hi guys! I am commenting to let you know that after attending Santa Monica College's RN program orientation today I have decided to attend their RN program. It was so nice talking to you guys on this...

    @yellow I didn't take micro at COC so I can't give you a personal opinion, but I always found ratemyprofessor.com to be an excellent

    ajourneytonursing replied to Dspty4's topic in California Nursing

    @mom2livryaneli I am rooting for you to get in! I am sure more people will drop out after the June 21st deadline because sadly people miss deadlines or mess up paperwork. 7 Is getting really close!

    ajourneytonursing replied to Dspty4's topic in California Nursing

    I don't think your ideal future is too much to ask :). A lot of hospitals will hire an ADN nurse if you provide proof you are enrolled in a BSN program. Also something you or anyone can look into is...

  9. College of the Canyons Fall 2016

    ajourneytonursing replied to Dspty4's topic in California Nursing

    Oh I looked into CSU San Marcos too and that program sounds awesome! :) I've also heard good things about the school in general but from what I could tell from the website there was only a part time...

  10. College of the Canyons Fall 2016

    ajourneytonursing replied to Dspty4's topic in California Nursing

    Personally I am most interested in concurrent enrollment programs because I want to go onto grad school for NP so I want my bachelors over with as soon as possible. Plus getting an RN job in a...

    ajourneytonursing replied to Dspty4's topic in California Nursing

    As long as your titers show immunity to Hep B then yes you are good

    ajourneytonursing replied to Dspty4's topic in California Nursing

    I know! I'm so excited to start! For the TB just go to facey and say you need two TB tests done as part of your nursing school physical. Some places will read it after 48 hours and some in 7 days...

    ajourneytonursing replied to Dspty4's topic in California Nursing

    Is anyone taking any summer classes at COC this summer? Perhaps the lab interpretation or pharmacology class? :) Or the PM nutrition

  14. College of the Canyons Fall 2016

    ajourneytonursing replied to Dspty4's topic in California Nursing

    Really good point. To keep their Magnet status the hospital has to employee a certain percentage of BSN nurses. I would look into how having an MSN only would factor into getting hired at these...

  15. Santa Monica College (SMC) Nursing Fall 2016

    ajourneytonursing replied to Shermanm7's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Oh wow, I meant 85% for the NLN-PAX haha. I was looking at your score thinking "130% wow!" 85 points wouldn't have qualified me for the program! I looked into the CSUDH dual enrollment program and...

  16. College of the Canyons Fall 2016

    ajourneytonursing replied to Dspty4's topic in California Nursing

    I think I remember you saying you have a bachelors in another field already right? I would totally go for the MSN program! It will open up so many doors for higher up positions like DON or infection...

    Congrats to you! :) and off course you can ask! Related Background info: I am a CNA with direct patient care experience and volunteer experience in a ER/trauma center. My GPA is as follows: Science...

    ajourneytonursing replied to Dspty4's topic in California Nursing

    Hey guys! Just FYI for those who will be attending COC for the first time or didn't attend this past spring semester, in order to receive a registration appointment (especially one that is not dead...

    ajourneytonursing replied to Dspty4's topic in California Nursing

    If you have been a California resident for at least a year I would totally fill out the FAFSA. You will probably qualify for at least the Board of Governors Fee Waiver which will pay for tuitions...

    Congrats!

  21. ADN Program will have a period of no accreditation from ACEN or NLN-CNEA.

    ajourneytonursing replied to ajourneytonursing's topic in General Students

    Exactly what I was thinking! They aren't giving any specifics as to how long the "interim" period of time will be. I don't understand why they can't keep their ACEN while they attempt to get the CNEA...

  22. ADN Program will have a period of no accreditation from ACEN or NLN-CNEA.

    ajourneytonursing posted a topic in General Students

    Hello everyone! I have been accepted into an ADN program in California for this Fall 16. The website of this program has recently stated that it has always been accredited by the ACEN but has decided...

    ajourneytonursing replied to Dspty4's topic in California Nursing

    Yes! Resubmitted my application to cccapply.org on Friday. Also everyone remember to start your FAFSA if you haven't yet! My email from COC said it could take 6-8 weeks to process it

  24. College of the Canyons Fall 2016

    ajourneytonursing replied to Dspty4's topic in California Nursing

    That's a really good question! Especially since this "gap period" would be starting January 2017. This is definitely something we should all do our personal research into and ask questions about at...

  25. Anyone make it into nursing school with a C in Anatomy?

    ajourneytonursing replied to cjens27's topic in General Students

    Here in California there are some programs who choose based on a lottery system. So if you meet the minimum requirements you have the same chance as someone who got all A's. I also happen to know of a...
